    Black Friday is Dead | Wood Talk 578

    On today’s show, we’re talking about things to think about when woodworking in the desert, non-digital information sources, cutting large cookies without the big tools, and buying your first dust collector Sponsored by You: https://patreon.com/woodtalk What's on the Bench +Marc is making plywood workbenches and hating his life +Shannon is crafting a craft beer Christmas +Matt is using drawer slides and wishes he wasn't Kickback So many of you wrote in to say how much the burnout episode spoke to you. From those dealing with the loss of a parent to those struggling to find time for woodworking. Burnout is a very real issue and we are so thankful for all of you who commented and took the time to write to us about your own personal experiences with it. Listener Questions +Mike lives in the AZ desert and wonders how his dry climate changes how he woodworks and what he needs to consider when he builds projects that end up in much more humid climates. +Lucas inherited a shop that is already plumbed for dust collection and asks about buying his first dust collector. +Dane has a big hunk of burl that he resawed to make a chair seat. It took him a long time and left him exhausted and asks how he could improve other than buying a different tool. +Jeremy spends enough time in front of a computer and asks how we feel about woodworking magazines as a way to get more woodworking knowledge.
